Stupidly low prices
« on: October 27, 2012, 10:39:01 pm »
my cousin has started up window cleaning as u may have all seen my other page. he is charging £6 per house and £9 with conservatory. thats all in including all upvc's and is getting 30+ jobs per day on facebook in my local area.
which is drying up my work as hes undercutting me on my customers. and its not worth my while doing competing at them prices!!!

30+ jobs a day and all from Facebook?

150+ jobs week? Is that every week?

Are you sure you've got the numbers correct or am I reading what you posted wrong?

Blimey. That is quite something but not good for you.

How does he get all the work done?
